The first T-7A #RedHawk soared through the sky on June 28, 2023, completing its official inaugural flight with the U.S. Air Force.

Following previous U.S. Air Force flights of the grey-tailed production representative jets (PRJ), a U.S. Air Force pilot flew for the first time the red-tailed engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) aircraft and demonstrated the power and agility of the advanced trainer. The jet’s vibrant red tail is a tribute to the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African American U.S. military aviators, who flew their red-tailed fighters during World War II.
